Last (but not least) Reg Meuross gigs of 2017 and news of the ‘Two Albums Tour’

I had a fantastic gig at The Great British Folk Festival at Butlins in Skegness. Thanks to a great organisation and to all those who came to see me and shared 45 minutes of musical embraces, and especially those who kept me selling CDs for a further 45 minutes!. As you can see from Jordan Russell’s excellent photos, Skegness is indeed bracing! FULL NEWSLETTER HERE

Still four lovely gigs to go before 2017 is out. I hope to see some of you in Oldham where I’m playing a double header with wonderful Flossie Malavialle, Birmingham, supported by the excellent Edd Donovan, then over to the English Folk Club in Alicante (where it might be a bit warmer than Skegness) or my grand finale of the year at Crewkerne, joined by Phil Beer and very special guest, Geoff Lakeman.

My next album Songs About A Train will be officially released on February 2nd 2018. Thanks for all your special pre-Christmas pre-orders. They should be with you already, or very soon. Keep them coming. So I will be touring the first half of 2018 with Faraway People and Songs About A Train. I’m calling it the Two Album Tour 2018 (see dates below).

Also I’ve been happily co-writing songs with Seth Lakeman for a forthcoming album, and have written a song-cycle ’12 Silk Handkerchiefs’ which I will tour with in 2018. The songs are inspired by Brian W Lavery’s book The Headscarf Revolutionaries, about The Hull Triple Trawler Disaster in 1968 which sparked a fishwives’ uprising, spearheaded by Lilian Bilocca, that took on the Establishment and won.

So plenty of exciting things in store for next year. Thanks as ever for all your support, wherever you are.

Love

Enjoyed seeing you at two Costa Del Folk fests and at Butlins. Missed you in the church in Sidmouth last year but saw you in the pub. Love your songs. Friend of mine told me about you. Sadly he left us in June but he had one of your songs at the funeral. Hoping to see you at Burton in January. Thanks for the songs.
